Regulation of lipid metabolism by APOE4 in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma
Article in PeerJ, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a malignancy with a dismal prognosis, thus the discovery of promising diagnostic markers and treatment targets is still required. In this study, 1,852 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the GSE45001 dataset for weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), and the turquoise module was confirmed as the key module. Next, the subnetworks of the 1,009 genes in the turquoise module analyzed by MCODE, MCC, and BottleNeck algorithms identified nine overlapping genes (CAT, APOA1, APOC2, HSD17B4, EHHADH, APOA2, APOE4, ACOX1, AGXT), significantly associated with lipid metabolism pathways, such as peroxisome and cholesterol metabolism. Among them, APOE4 exhibited a potential tumor-suppressive role in ICC and high diagnostic value for ICC in both GSE45001 and GSE32879 datasets.
